AppsVillage Annual Report 

Chairman’s letter 

Dear Shareholders,  

Welcome to the inaugural annual report of AppsVillage since listing on the Australian Stock Exchange in 
August 2019. It has been a milestone year for the Company and I would like to take this opportunity to thank 
all shareholders for your support during this time. Financial Year 2019 was a transformational year for the 
business as we made significant progress towards fulfilling our mission of becoming the go-to provider for 
SMBs.  

A transformational year delivering record results 
AppsVillage joined the ASX following an extremely successful IPO that saw us raise AU$5 million. This gave us a 
strong financial platform from which we were able to go on and deliver a number of key achievements in line 
with our growth and expansion strategy. This included delivering very substantial growth in revenues along 
with very strong growth in the number of paying subscribers.  

Our primary focus for 2019 was to deliver solid growth across our proprietary app development platform and 
demonstrate the ability of our business to scale. In order to achieve this, an in-house analytical project was 
initiated to establish the highest achieving customer acquisition channels and an assessment was made into 
how we could capitalise on that information. As a result, we expanded our relationship with Facebook to 
enable an automatic app development process utilising the SMBs existing Instagram account. The relationship 
was also then expanded even further to integrate the one-click Facebook advertising capabilities available in-
app to all customers. 

This strategy proved to be extremely successful and we reached a record in paying SMBs as a result. The 
growth in paying SMBs in the emerging markets was over 2000% and followed by the US with over 200% 
growth during 2019.  

Additionally, we rolled out our app-platform offering to a number of high-growth emerging markets including 
the Philippines, India, Malaysia and multiple countries in Africa. These geographies represent markets of 
strategic importance for us and initial growth has exceeded expectations.

Growth through strategic expansion  
We are also focused on developing a suite of products to aid and propel the growth of all SMBs globally and 
we further expanded our product offering to incorporate micro-loans. In doing this we are able to leverage our 
large global database of ambitious CEO’s looking to grow their businesses. The launch of a microfinance 
service is not only harmonious to our existing offering and business model but also allows us to further 
capitalise on existing assets.  

The US and Australian markets are strategically important for the Company in the launch of this offering and in 
order to materially progress developments we signed partnership agreements with existing SMB loan 
providers in each region. In the US, we signed agreements with Seek Capital LLC and Fundomate, Inc and in 
Australia an agreement was signed with Lumi Financial Management.  

Signing agreements of this nature not only allow us to test and launch this product without risk but also allows 
us to begin establishing a footprint in the sector while we finalise the regulatory requirements that will enable 
us to offer our own SMB loans in the future.   

A strong start to 2020 
We finished calendar 2019 with very strong momentum in sales growth and growth in the number of paying 
SMBs on the AppsVillage platform. I am pleased to report that this momentum has continued into 2020. 
Despite the challenges that have arisen from COVID-19 on global economies and SMBs, we have substantially 
exceeded our reported revenue guidance and we have much confidence in the robustness of our platform to 
continue to deliver strong outcomes for the remainder of the 2020 financial year.  

We continue to develop valuable initiatives for our SMB customers. Subsequent to the year-end we formally 
launched the micro-loan offering in the US, following successful beta testing. We also commenced the beta 
testing for our Australian launch. Over the next financial year, we are focused on strengthening our 
relationships with capital lenders and delivering strong revenues from sales of this offering. We are also 
working on upgrading the capabilities of our core offering – the app development platform to increase its 
intuitiveness and offer even further added value to SMB customers. This process has already started with the 
imminent launch of our new marketplace. The marketplace is an additional online platform allowing 
consumers access to the apps developed by our customers and a valuable promotional tool for the SMBs. 
These initiatives are continuing to drive strong revenue and paying subscriber growth into the 2020 financial 
year. 

Finally, as a company we are committed to creating shareholder value through delivering continued growth 
across all metrics and are streamlining our commercial application processes to ramp up delivery of our 
growth strategy in order to ensure our operational and commercial targets are met.  We believe the impacts 
of COVID-19 make digital marketing more important than ever, so we will continue to work closely with our 
customers to help them through these hard times. We also are working diligently to ensure responsible 
operations in this time of uncertainty. 

Yours sincerely  

Yoav Ziv

Major Business Developments:

• 

AppsVillage signed an agreement with a leading B2B credit risk analytics company Credit Risk Community, Inc. to integrate 
its credit risk to integrate its credit risk analysis technology into the AppsVillage Capital Platform. 
AppsVillage has integrated an artificial intelligence algorithm into its app development software. 
Following COVID-19 situation, the Company has setup an Emergency Micro Loan program to assist SMBs with their immediate 
cashflow needs to deal with the impacts of the situation. 

Also on 31 January 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of 
coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (COVID-19 outbreak) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally 
beyond its point of origin. Because of the rapid increase in exposure globally, on 11 March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 
outbreak as a pandemic. 

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve at the date of this report. The Company is therefore uncertain as to the 
full impact that the pandemic will have on its financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations during 2020. 
While offering unique opportunities for AppsVillage, COVID-19 also represents significant challenges for all companies globally and 
AppsVillage is not different. We continue to focus on our strategy of expanding the Company’s operations and have implemented 
measures to maintain low operational expenditure and mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our activities. 

Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic 
continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal 
year 2020. 
The Company recently announced that following the global situation, the Company has setup and Emergency Micro Loan program to 
assist SMBs with their immediate cashflow needs to deal with the impacts of COVID-19 on their operations.  Eligible businesses on the 
AppsVillage platform will be able to access loans of up to $10,000 within 24 hours for an immediate relief of Coronavirus effect on 
their business.

The Board has chosen not to establish an Audit and Risk Committee and a Remuneration committee.  The Board considers that due to the relatively 
small size of the Company, the interests of the Company are best served by the full Board completing the functions normally delegated to an audit 
committee.   
The processes that the Board employs to independently verify and safeguard the integrity of its corporate reporting include: 

• 
• 

• 

reviewing and adopting the Company’s quarterly, half year and annual report prior to release to shareholders and the ASX; 
overseeing the Company’s relationship with the external auditor, the external audit function generally and ensuring the external audit 
engagement partner rotation is in accordance with the Corporations Code. 
overseeing the adequacy of the Company’s financial risk management and internal controls. 

Options  

During the financial year, no options were exercised. 

As at the date of this report, and the reporting date, there were 37,049,314 options on issue (2018: 29,581. Refer to Note 17) of the 
financial statements for details on options issued during the financial year.  

The holders of these options do not have any rights under the options to participate in any share issue of the Company or any other 
entity.  

Proceedings on Behalf of Company 

No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the 
Group, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Group is a party, for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Group 
for all or part of those proceedings. 

No  proceedings  have  been  brought  or  intervened  in  on  behalf  of  the  Group  with  leave  of  the  Court  under  section  237  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001.

Directors’  Report (continued)

Indemnification and Insurance of directors and officers 

The Group has indemnified the Directors and Executives of the Group for costs incurred, in their capacity as a Director or Executive, for 
which they may be held personally liable, except where there is a lack of good faith. 

During the financial year, the Group paid a premium in respect of a contract to ensure the Directors and Executives of the Company 
against a liability to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of 
the liability and the amount of the premium. 

Environmental Regulations 

The Directors are not aware of any significant environmental issues affecting the Group or its compliance with relevant environmental 
issues affecting the Group or its compliance with relevant environmental agencies or regulatory authorities.  

Likely Developments and Expected Results of Operations 

AppsVillage has delivered strong and continuous growth since listing on the ASX in August 2019 and this momentum has continued 
into the 2020 financial year. Having completed FY2019 with 6,418 paying SMB customers utilising its app-development and marketing 
platform for SMBs, the Company is confident in its ability to continue to deliver growth in FY2020.  

FY2019 saw the launch of AppsVillage’s SMB loan offering, with partners in the USA (Seek Capital and Fundomate) and Australia (Lumi). 
Strong traction was built during the pilot phase of its US offering and APV has ramped up its strategy to build further momentum for 
this offering. APV’s SMB finance pilot phase is still ongoing in Australia and results to date have been extremely encouraging. The full 
launch of this service is expected to commence in Q4 2020 and the Company expects immediate and strong traction.  

As a result of the strong growth delivered to date, the Company expects to continue to deliver the following growth across its revenue 
generation, paying subscribers and SMB finance offering in 2020.

The  recent  outbreak  of  COVID-19  has  presented  unprecedented  challenges  for  governments  and  small  businesses  globally.  These 
challenges have also provided opportunities for AppsVillage’s robust business model, particularly in relation to the initiatives like SMB 
loan offerings which are expected to drive increased demand from SMBs.  

AppsVillage has refined its customer acquisition strategy to focus on high margin, high revenue geographies such as the USA, the United 
Kingdom and Australia in order to reduce overall marketing expenditure. The Company expects this initiative will improve customer 
ROI and profitability.  

At this stage, the Company does not foresee a negative impact to its operations as a result of COVID-19 and is continuing with its 
strategy to grow customers and revenues.

Indemnification of Auditors 

To the extent that is permitted by law, the Company has agreed to indemnity its auditors, BDO Perth (WA) Pty Ltd, as part of the terms 
of  the  agreement  against  claims  by  third  parties  arising  from  their  report  on  the  financial  report.  No  payment  has  been  made  to 
indemnify BDO Perth (WA) Pty Ltd during or since the financial year.  

Non-audit Services 

The Company’s auditor, BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd, has provided US$20,160 in non-audit service and its network firm has provided $4,000 
in non-audit services to the Group during the year ended 31 December 2019 (2018: nil).  

Full details of their remuneration can be found within the financial statements at Note 7.  

In the event that non-audit services are provided by BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd, the Board has established certain procedures to ensure 
that the provision of non-audit services are compatible with, and do not compromise the auditor independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001.  These procedures include: 
● 

non-audit services will be subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and will be reviewed by the 
Board to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and 

● 

ensuring non-audit services do not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-
making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards. 

Auditor’s Independence Declaration 

The auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 27. 

This report is made in accordance with a resolution of Directors.

2.  Remuneration governance 

The Directors believe the Company is not currently of a size nor are its affairs of such complexity as to warrant the establishment of a 
separate  remuneration  committee.  Accordingly,  all  matters  are  considered  by  the  full  Board  of  Directors,  in  accordance  with  a 
Remuneration Committee Charter. 

At this stage the Board does not consider the Group’s earnings- or earnings-related measures to be an appropriate key performance 
indicator (KPI). In considering the relationship between the Group’s remuneration policy and the consequences for the Company’s 
shareholder wealth, changes in share price are analysed as well as measures such as successful completion of business development 
and corporate activities. 

During the financial year, the Company did not engage any remuneration consultants.

4.  Non-executive director fee arrangements 

The  Board  policy  is  to  remunerate  non-executive  directors  at  a  level  to  comparable  companies  for  time,  commitment,  and 
responsibilities. Non-executive directors may receive performance related compensation. Directors’ fees cover all main Board activities 
and membership of any committee. The Board  has no established retirement or redundancy schemes  in relation to non-executive 
directors. 

The  maximum  aggregate  amount  of  fees  that  can  be  paid  to  non-executive  directors  is  presently  limited  to  an  aggregate  of 
approximately  $342,000  (A$500,000)  per  annum  and  any  increase  is  subject  to  approval  by  shareholders.  Fees  for  non-executive 
directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, directors 
are encouraged to hold shares in the Company. 

Total fees for non-executive directors for the financial year were $71,820 (A$105,000) and cover main Board activities only. Non-
executive directors may receive additional remuneration for other services provided to the Group. All non-executive directors enter 
into a service agreement with the Company in the form of a letter of appointment.  The letter summarises the board policies and 
terms, including remuneration, relevant to the office of director.

AppsVillage Australia Limited  
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 
For the Year Ended 31 December 2019 

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

These consolidated financial statements cover AppsVillage Australia Limited (Company) and its controlled entity (also referred to as 
Group).  

AppsVillage Australia Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity. 

The nature of operations and principal activities of the Company are described in the Directors’ report.  

Basis of preparation of the financial report 

a)

Statement of Compliance

These  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  which  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  Australian 
Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) 
and the Corporations Act 2001. 

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the Australian Accounting Standards Board has concluded would 
result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with 
Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting 
Standards.  

b)

Basis of Measurement and Reporting Conventions including Capital Re-organisation

The financial statements, except for cash flow information, have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, 
modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. 
The amounts presented in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest dollar unless stated otherwise.  

On 26 August 2019, AppsVillage Australia Limited (APV) completed a transaction with the shareholders of AppsVillage Ltd (AppsVillage 
Israel) to acquire 100% of the share capital of AppsVillage Israel  in exchange for the following equity instruments in the Company; 
19,950,686  shares  and  3,049,314  options  exercisable  at  AUD$0.039.  In  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards,  the 
acquisition does not meet the definition of a business combination as APV was established for the sole purpose of facilitating the listing 
process to acquire AppsVillage Israel by way of an equity swap. The shareholders of AppsVillage Israel received the same proportion of 
equity instruments in APV. 

The financial report will represent: 

•
•
•

the results of AppsVillage Israel for the period 1 January 2019 to the Acquisition Date
the results of the consolidated group from the Acquisition Date to 31 December 2019
the consolidated Groups financial position as at 31 December 2019

The comparative financial information in the financial statements will be that of AppsVillage Israel and not AppsVillage Australia Limited 
(although  the  capital  structure  will  be  that  of  AppsVillage  Ltd).  Comparative  figures  have  been  adjusted  to  conform  to  changes  in 
presentation for the current financial year.  

c)

Going Concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business  activity and 
the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group incurred a loss for year ended 
31 December 2019 of US$ 5,017,237 (2018: US$1,521,102) and net cash outflows from operating activities of  US$2,700,048 (2018: 
US$1,062,098). 

Subsequent  to  reporting  date,  on  31  January  2020,  the  World  Health  Organisation  (WHO)  announced  a  global  health  emergency 
because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (COVID-19 outbreak) and the risks to the international community 
as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. Because of the rapid increase in exposure globally, on 11 March 2020, the WHO 
classified  the  COVID-19  outbreak  as  a  pandemic.  These  events  are  having  a  significant  negative  impact  on  world  stock  markets, 
currencies and general business activities. The timing and extent of the impact and recovery from COVID-19 is unknown but it may 

29 

have an impact on Group’s activities and potentially impact on being able to increase its revenue and/or raise capital in an uncertain 
market. 

In context of this operating environment, the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on securing additional 
funding through debt or equity to continue to fund its operational and marketing activities. 

These  conditions  indicate  a  material  uncertainty  that  may  cast  a  significant  doubt  about  the  entity’s  ability  to  continue  as  a  going 
concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. 

The Directors believe that there will be sufficient funds available to continue to meet the Group’s working capital requirements as at 
the date of this report and that sufficient funds will be available to finance the operations of the Group for the following reasons: 

•

•
•
•

•

the Directors have assessed the likely cash flow for the 12 month period from the date of signing this financial report and its 
impact on the Group and believe there will be sufficient funds to meet the Group’s working capital requirements as at the date 
of this report;
the Group has recently been successful in raising equity and is planning to raise further funds;
the level of expenditure can be managed;
the Directors also have reason to believe that in addition to the cash flow currently available, additional funds from receipts are 
expected through the provision of the Group’s services; and
Is continuing to explore alternative options in an effort to mitigate the possible impact of COVID-19.

Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other 
than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements or raise additional 
capital through equity or debts raisings and that the financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability 
and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern 
and meet its debts as and when they become due and payable. The directors plan to continue the Group’s operations on the basis as 
outlined above and believe there will be sufficient funds for the Group to meet its obligations and liabilities for at least twelve 
months from the date of this report 

d)

Principles of Consideration 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and  its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2019. 
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and  has the 
ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls as investee if and only if the Group 
has: 

•
•
•

Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

When  the  Group  has  less  than  a  majority  of  the  voting  or  similar  rights  of  an  investee,  the  Group  considers  all  relevant  facts  and 
circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including: 

•
•
•

The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee,
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements,
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more 
of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases 
when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during 
the year are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until 
the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. 

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group, 
and  to  the  non-controlling  interests,  even  if  this  results  in  the  non-controlling  interests  having  a  deficit  balance.  When  necessary, 
adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting 
policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the 
Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.  

30 

AppsVillage Australia Limited  
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 
For the Year Ended 31 December 2019 

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

A change in ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the  Group loses 
control over a subsidiary, it: 

•
•
•
•
•
•
•

De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
Recognises the fair value of any investments retained
Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit and loss
Reclassifies  the  parent’s  share  of  components  previously  recognised  in  OCI  to  profit  or  loss  Accumulated  losses  as 
appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

e)

Income Tax

Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates 
enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected 
to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. 

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well 
unused tax losses.  

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax 
relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.  

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities 
and their carrying amounts in financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future 
tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a 
business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.  

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the 
liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner 
in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.  

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that 
future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. 

When  temporary  differences  exist  in  relation  to  investments  in  subsidiaries,  branches,  associates,  and  joint  ventures,  deferred  tax 
assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and  it is not 
probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.  

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or 
simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset 
where a  legally enforceable right of set-off exists,  the deferred tax assets and  liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same 
taxation  authority  on  either  the  same  taxable  entity  or  different  taxable  entities  where  it  is  intended  that  net  settlement  or 
simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of 
deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  

f) 

Financial Instruments  

Initial recognition and measurement 
Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the 
contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at fair value 
through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit 
or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below. 

Classification and subsequent measurement 

(i) 

Receivables 

Trade receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. 
Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 0 - 60 days. 

(ii) 

Financial liabilities 

Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are 
recognised in profit or loss though amortisation process and when the financial liability is derecognised. 

Derivative instruments 
The Group does not trade or hold derivatives. 

Financial guarantees 
The Group has no material financial guarantees. 

Derecognition 
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flow expires or the asset is transferred to another 
party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. 

Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between 
the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including 
the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised on profit or loss. 

g)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits available on demand with banks with original maturity of three months or 
less. 

h)  Trade receivables 

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest 
method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 0 - 60 days. 
The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To 
measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

i)

Revenue Recognition

The  Group  provides  an  online  platform  that  enables  users  to  create  applications  using  their  Facebook  (‘FB’)  pages  and  generates 
revenue primarily from services related to such applications.  

The Group recognises revenue when the customer obtains control over the promised services. The revenue is measured according to 
the amount of the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for the services promised to the customer, 
other than amounts collected for third parties.  

Identifying the contract  

The Group accounts for a contract with a customer only when the following conditions are met: 

(a)  The parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally or according to other customer business practices) 

and they are committed to satisfying the obligations attributable to them;  

(b)  The Group can identify the rights of each party in relation to services that will be transferred;  
(c)  The Group can identify the payment terms for the service that will be transferred;  
(d)  The contract has a commercial substance (i.e. the risk, timing and amount of the entity’s future cash flows are expected to 

(e) 

change as a result of the contract); and  
It is probable the consideration, to which the Group is entitled to in exchange for its services transferred to customer, will be 
collected. 

For the purposes of paragraph (e) the Group examines, inter alia, the percentage of the advance payments received and the spread of 
the contractual payments, past experience with the customer and the status and existence of sufficient collateral.  

If a contract with a customer does not meet all the above criteria, consideration received from the customer is recognised as a contract 
liability until the criteria are met or when one of the following events occurs; the Group has no remaining obligation to transfer services 
to the customer and any considerations promised by the customer has been received and cannot be returned; or the contract has been 
terminated and the consideration received from the customer cannot be refunded.  

Identifying Performance Obligations 

On  the  contract’s  inception  date,  the  Group  assesses  the  services  promised  in  the  contract  with  the  customer  and  identifies  as  a 
performance obligation any promise to transfer to the customer one of the following: 

(a)  Services that are distinct; or 
(b)  A series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. 

The Group identifies services promised to the customer as being distinct when the customer can benefit from the services on their own 
or in conjunction with other readily available resources and the Group’s promise to transfer the services to the customer is separately 
identifiable from other promises in the contract. 

Determining the transaction price 

The  transaction  price  is  the  amount  of  the  consideration  to  which  the  Group  expects  to  be  entitled  in  exchange  for  the  services 
promised to the customer, other than amounts collected for third parties. 

Satisfaction of performance obligations 

Revenue is recognised overtime when the Group satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over promised services to 
the customer.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 
For the Year Ended 31 December 2019 

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

i)

Revenue Recognition

Interest income 

Interest income is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost 
of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that 
exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount  of the 
financial asset.  

j)

Research and development expenses

Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, 
is recognised in profit or loss when incurred. 

Development  activities  involve  a  plan  or  design  for  the  production  of  new  or  substantially  improved  products  and  processes. 
Development expenditure is capitalised only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and 
commercially  feasible,  future  economic  benefits  are  probable,  and  the  Group  has  intention  and  sufficient  resources  to  complete 
development and to use or sell the asset.    

As of 31 December 2019, the Group does not meet the conditions to capitalise any development expenditure, therefore, all expenditure 
was recognised in profit or loss as incurred. 

k) Operating expenses

Operating expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of the service or at the date of their origin. 

l)

Depreciation 

Depreciation is a systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life. The depreciable amount is the cost of 
the asset, less its residual value. 

An asset is depreciated from the date it is ready for use, meaning the date it reaches the location and condition required for it to 
operate in the manner intended by management. 

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of the fixed asset item, 
since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the assets.  

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows: 

•

Computer and software 

33% 

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted if appropriate. 

m) Goods and Services Tax (GST)/Value Added Tax (VAT)

Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST/VAT, except where the amount of GST/VAT incurred is not 
recoverable. 

Receivable  and  payables  are  stated  inclusive  of  the  amount  of  GST/VAT  receivable  or  payable.  The  net  amount  of  the  GST/VAT 
recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  tax  authorities  is  included  with  other  receivables  and  payables  in  the  statement  of  financial 
position. 

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST/VAT component of investing and financing 
activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

n)

Employee Benefits 

Post-employment benefits 
The liability for severance pay is in accordance its obligations under Israeli employment law (Section 14 of the Severance Compensation 
Act, 1963). All Israel based employees are included under Section 14, and are entitled only to monthly deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of 
their  monthly  salary,  made  in  the  employee’s  name  with  insurance  companies  or  pension  funds.  Under  Israeli  employment  law, 
payments in accordance with Section 14 release the employer from any future severance payments.  

The funds are made available to the employee at the time the employer-employee relationship is terminated, regardless of the cause 
of termination. The severance pay liabilities and deposits under Section 14 are not reflected in the statements of financial position as 
the severance pay risks have been irrevocably transferred to the insurance companies or pension funds. 

Short term employee benefits 

Short term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided 
or upon the actual absence of the employee when the benefit is not accumulated.  

The employee benefits are classified, for measurement purposes, as short-term benefits or as other long-term benefits depending on 
when the Group expects the benefits to be wholly settled.  

o)

Equity-settled compensation

The Group measures the share-based expense and the cost of equity-settled transaction with employees by reference to the fair value 
of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black Scholes option valuation 
model which takes into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments are granted. 

p)

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are 
unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and 
are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 

q)

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that 
an outflow of economic benefits will result, and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate 
of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.  

r)

Equity and reserves 

Share capital represents the fair value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are 
deducted from share capital, net of any related income tax benefits. The Share-based payment reserve records the cost of share-based 
payments. 

s)

Foreign currency transactions and balances

Functional and presentation currency 
The functional currency of each entity within the Group is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which 
that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars which is the subsidiary’s functional currency. 

Transaction and balances  
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. 
Foreign  currency  monetary  items  are  translated  at  the  year-end  exchange  rate.  Non-monetary  items  measured  at  historical  cost 
continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at 
the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.  

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit or loss.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)  
For the Year Ended 31 December 2019 

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  

s) 

Foreign currency transactions and balances  

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to the 
extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised other comprehensive Income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in 
profit or loss.  

Group Companies  
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation currency 
are translated as follows: 

• 
• 
• 

assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at the reporting period; 
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and 
retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. 

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised 
in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These 
differences are recognised in the profit or loss in the period which the operation is disposed of.  

t) 

Segment information 

Identification of reportable segments 
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors 
(the  chief  operating  decision  makers)  in  assessing  performance  and  in  determining  the  allocation  of  resources.  The  Group’s  sole 
operating segment is consistent with the presentation of these consolidated financial statements. 

u)  Share based payments  

Share-based payments are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, 
if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services 
are received. The fair value of options is determined using the Black Scholes option valuation model. The number of shares and options 
expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognised for services received 
as consideration for the equity instruments granted is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. 

For performance options with non-market based vesting conditions, at each reporting date, the Company revises its estimate of the 
number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or 
loss over the remaining vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to the option reserve.  

v)  Earnings/(loss) per share  

Basic earnings/(loss) per share is calculated by dividing: 

• 

• 

the profit/(loss) attributable to member of the parent entity, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary 
shares 
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in 
ordinary shares issued during the year (if any). 

Diluted earnings/(loss) per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings/(loss) per share to take into account: 

• 
• 

the after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares; and 
the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of 
all dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

w)  Predecessor Accounting 

Business combinations involving entities under  capital reorganisation are accounted for using the predecessor accounting method. 
Under this method; 

• 

• 

Carrying values are not restated in the accounts of the acquiring entity, rather prior book values are maintained. As a result, 
no fair value adjustments are recorded on the acquisition; and 
The carrying value of net assets or liabilities acquired is recorded as a separate element of equity.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and  best 
available  current  information.  Estimates  assume  a  reasonable  expectation  of  future  events  and  are  based  on  current  trends  and 
economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group. 

Key Estimates and judgements 

Capital Re-organisation 
The  acquisition  of  100%  of  the  issued  capital  of  AppsVillage  Ltd  (Israel)  by  the  Company,  by  way  of  issuing  the  shareholders  of 
AppsVillage Ltd (Israel) fully paid shares in the Company, has been determined as a capital reorganisation as the transaction does not 
meet the  definition of a business. Capital reorganisation transactions are a complex accounting area because there are no specific 
accounting standards for these types of transactions. In the absence of specific guidance, management has used the guidance in AASB 
108  Accounting  Policies,  Change  in  Accounting  Estimates  and  Errors  (para  10)  whereby  management  has  used  its  judgement  in 
developing and applying a relevant and reliable accounting policy using pre-combination book values to account for this transaction as 
no substantive economic change has occurred. Refer to Note 2 for additional information. 

Share based payments 
The Group initially measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees, KMP and directors by reference to the fair value 
of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires 
determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. 

This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the 
share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them, as well as an assessment of the probability of achieving 
non-market-based vesting conditions. 

The directors also apply judgements to assess the probability and timing of achieving milestones related to the performance options. 
At  31  December  2019  the  Directors  have  assessed  the  probability  of  meeting  the  non-market  conditions  as  less  than  probable. 
Accordingly,  no  amount  in  relation  to  these  performance  rights  has  been  recognised  in  the  Statement  of  Profit  or  Loss  and  Other 
Comprehensive Income or in the remuneration disclosures for Directors and key management personnel. The assumptions and models 
for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed on Note 17. 

The  Directors  make  estimates  and  judgements  in  preparing  the  financial  report  based  on  historical  knowledge  and  best  available 
current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events based and are based on current trends and economic 
data, obtained both externally and within the Group.

NOTE 15: ISSUED CAPITAL (continued) 

a)

Capital Management

Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding 
being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group’s capital risk management is the current working capital position against the 
requirements of the Group to meet research and development programs and corporate overheads. The Group’s strategy is to ensure 
appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raising as 
required. Any surplus funds are invested with major financial institutions.

certain key employees pursuant to the PROP vest based on the achievement of various performance hurdles. The performance rights 
have been granted to eligible participants as defined under the Company’s performance rights and option plan.  In order to remain an 
eligible participant, the employee and director must remain in services to the Group or the right will lapse and not vest.  

The performance hurdles for the performance rights and options are based on 3 separate targets relating to the Company’s revenue 
targets.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 
For the Year Ended 31 December 2019 

NOTE 18: OPERATING SEGMENTS 

Segment Information 
Identification of reportable segments 

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors 
(the  chief  operating  decision  makers)  in  assessing  performance  and  in  determining  the  allocation  of  resources.  The  Group’s  sole 
operating segment is consistent with the presentation of these consolidated financial statements.  

NOTE 19: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

a)

Capital management

The Group’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide 
returns for shareholders and benefits to other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. 
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid, return capital to shareholders, 
issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

Given the nature of the business, the Group monitors capital on the basis of current business operations and cash flow requirements.  
There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.

c)

Financial risk management policies

In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes 
the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative 
information in respect of those risks is presented throughout these financial statements.  

The board has overall responsibility to the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining 
ultimate  responsibility  for  them,  it  has  delegated  the  authority  for  designing  and  operating  processes  that  ensure  the  effective 
implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group’s finance function. The Group’s risk management policies and objectives 
are therefore designed to minimise the potential impacts of those risks on the Group where such impacts mat be material. The board 
receives  financial  reports  through  which  it  reviews  the  effectiveness  of  the  processes  put  in  place  and  the  appropriateness  of  the 
objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the board is to set policies that see to reduce risk as far as possible without 
unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness and flexibility.  

d) Market risk 

Market risk for the Group arises from the use of interest-bearing financial instruments. It is the risk that the fair value or future cash 
flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in interest rate (see (e) below).

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The 
Group has adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a 
means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent  of 
investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the 
Group uses other publicly available information and its own trading records to rates its major customers. The Group’s exposure and 
the  credit  ratings  of  its  counterparties  are  continuously  monitored,  and  the  aggregate  value  of  transactions  concluded  is  spread 
amongst approved counterparties.  

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-
rating agencies.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity  risk  arises  from  the  possibility  that  the  Group  might  encounter  difficulty  in  settling  its  debts  or  otherwise  meeting  its 
obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always  
have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable 
losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.  

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. 

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities based on the actual rates at the reporting date excluding interest 
payments:

Fair value estimation 
Due to the short-term nature of the receivables and payables, the carrying value approximates fair value. 

i)

Foreign currency risk

The currency risk is that risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to change in foreign exchange rates. Currency risk 
arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities  
are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s function currency. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising 
from various currency exposures primarily with respect to the US Dollar (the functional currency of the subsidiary company), the New 
Israeli Shekel, the Australian Dollar (functional currency of the parent company). No sensitivity analysis is disclosed as the balances in 
foreign currency are immaterial.

NOTE 24: EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD 

Major Business Developments: 

•

•
•

AppsVillage signed an agreement with a leading B2B credit risk analytics company Credit Risk Community, Inc. to integrate 
its credit risk to integrate its credit risk analysis technology into the AppsVillage Capital Platform. 
AppsVillage has integrated an artificial intelligence algorithm into its app development software. 
Following COVID-19 situation, the Company has setup an Emergency Micro Loan program to assist SMBs with their immediate 
cashflow needs to deal with the impacts of the situation. 

Also on 31 January 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of 
coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (COVID-19 outbreak) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally 
beyond its point of origin. Because of the rapid increase in exposure globally, on 11 March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 
outbreak as a pandemic. 

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve at the date of this report. The Company is therefore uncertain as to the 
full impact that the pandemic will have on its financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations during 2020. 

While offering unique opportunities for AppsVillage, COVID-19 also represents significant challenges for all companies globally and 
AppsVillage is not different. We continue to focus on our strategy of expanding the Company’s operations and have implemented 
measures to maintain low operational expenditure and mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our activities. 

Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic 
continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal 
year 2020. 

The Company recently announced that following the global situation, the Company has setup and Emergency Micro Loan program to 
assist SMBs with their immediate cashflow needs to deal with the impacts of COVID-19 on their operations.  Eligible businesses on the 
AppsVillage platform will be able to access loans of up to $10,000 within 24 hours for an immediate relief of Coronavirus effect on 
their business 

There were no other material events after the reporting period other than the above. 

NOTE 25: APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

The financial statements were approved by the board of directors and authorised for issue 31 March 2020. 

The directors are unaware of any other significant event or circumstance that has arisen since 31 December 2019 that has significantly 
affected the Group’s operations, results or state of affairs, or may do so in future years other than those disclosed above.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)  
For the Year Ended 31 December 2019 

NOTE 26: APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED AUSTRALIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS  

New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued and adopted  

The  Group  has  adopted  all  of  the  new,  revised  or  amending  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian 
Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.  

Any new of amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.  

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the entity:  

AASB 16 Leases  
The entity has adopted AASB 16 from 1 January 2019. Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, right-of-use assets 
and  corresponding  lease  liabilities  are  recognised  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  A  depreciation  charge  for  the  right-of-use 
assets  (included  in  operating  costs)  and  an  interest  expense  on  the  recognised  lease  liabilities  (included  in  finance  costs).  For 
classification within the statement of cash flows, the interest portion is disclosed in operating activities and the principal portion of the 
lease payments are separately disclosed in financing activities.  

The adoption of AASB 16 did not result in a material impact on the group as all the leases where the group is a lessee met the 
exemption for low-value or short-term leases.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 

To the members of AppsVillage Australia Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion  

We have audited the financial report of AppsVillage Australia Limited (the Company) and its 
subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 
December 2019, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the 
consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year 
then ended, and notes to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies 
and the directors’ declaration. 

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, including:  

(i) 

Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2019 and of its 
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and  

(ii) 

Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

Basis for opinion  

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report.  We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the 
financial report in Australia.  We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance 
with the Code. 

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been 
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the 
time of this auditor’s report. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our opinion.  

Material uncertainty related to going concern  

We draw attention to Note 1(c) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions 
which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the 
group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its 
assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in 
respect of this matter. 

BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, 
an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and 
form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.  

 
 
 
 
 
Key audit matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current period.  These matters were addressed in the context of 
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide 
a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty 
related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit 
matters to be communicated in our report. 

Accounting for capital reorganisation  

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

As disclosed in Note 1 to the financial report, on 26
August 2019, AppsVillage Australia Limited
acquired 100% of the issued capital of AppsVillage
Ltd by issuing the shareholders of AppsVillage Ltd
fully paid ordinary shares in AppsVillage Australia
Limited.  Appsvillage Australia Limited has been
incorporated to effect the Australian listing of
AppsVillage Ltd under a capital reorganisation.

The accounting of this capital reorganisation is a
key audit matter due to the accounting complexity
of the arrangement as there is limited guidance in
Australian accounting standards relating to these
types of transactions. There is a risk that the
financial report is not presented and disclosed in
accordance with the accounting policy adopted for
capital reorganisations by the Group.

Refer to Note 1(b),Note 1(x) and Note 2 to the
financial report for a description of the accounting
policy and judgements applied to this transaction.

Our procedures included, but were not limited
to:

• 

• 

• 

Obtaining an understanding of the relevant
agreements in line with management’s
assessment of the transaction and the
accounting policies adopted to reflect the
capital reorganisation;

Involving our internal technical accounting
specialists to evaluate the appropriateness
of the use of the continuation accounting
as it was applied to this transaction; and

Assessing the adequacy of the Group’s
disclosures in respect of the accounting for
this capital reorganisation in Note 1(b),
Note 1(x) and Note 2 to the financial
report.

 
 
 
 
 
 
Accounting for share-based payments 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

During the financial year ended 31 December
2019, the Group issued equity instruments in the
form of shares, options, warrants and
performance options, to eligible directors,
employees and other consultants, which have
been accounted for as share-based payments, as
detailed in Note 17 to the financial report.

Refer to Note 1(u) and Note 1(x) in the financial
report for a description of the accounting policy
and significant judgements applied to these
arrangements.

Share-based payments are a complex accounting
area and due to the complex and judgemental
estimates used in determining the fair value of
share-based payments. As a result, this is
considered a key audit matter.

Our procedures included, but were not limited 
to: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

Reviewing the relevant agreements to 
obtain an understanding of the contractual 
nature and terms and conditions of the 
share-based payment arrangements; 

Reviewing management’s determination of 
the fair value of the share-based payments 
granted, considering the appropriateness of 
the valuation models used and assessing 
the valuation input; 

Evaluating the independence, competence 
and objectivity of the managements’ 
expert to assess the reasonableness of 
management’s valuation inputs; 

Assessing management’s determination of 
achieving the non-market vesting 
conditions attached to the performance 
options issued; 

Assessing the allocation of the share-based 
payment expense over management’s 
expected vesting period; and 

Assessing the adequacy of the related 
disclosures in Note 1(u), Note 1(x) and Note 
17 in the financial report. 

Other information  

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the 
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2019, but does not include 
the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard. 

 
 
 
Other Matter

The financial report of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 was audited by another auditor
who expressed an unmodified opinion on that financial report on 26 May 2019.

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists.  Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at:

http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf

This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
